Measuring Ring Size

Ring size is not something that most people think about that much, but when purchasing a ring it is essential information. This ring size guide outlines a simple method for finding out what size of ring you need.

Cut a thin strip of paper

Wrap the paper around your finger. Make sure the paper is below the joint of your finger and close to your knuckle.

Mark the spot where the paper meets and measure the distance with your ruler. This will give you the circumference.

Use the chart to determine your ring size. Some rings also come in half sizes, the measurements of which, of course, will fall somewhere in between the whole sizes.

If you are buying a ring as a present for someone else, the best thing to do is to somehow get hold of a ring the person already wears and measure the inside diameter. Again, use the chart to determine the ring size you need.
